That’s just the ones I could think of off the top of my head, a BGT was my first ever esk8 but I sold it because underwhelmed.
I like Exway because of the Hobbyking association, and they’re turning out solid product with good features. The Flex Riot has real wheels, forged trucks, and good enough specs.
@JJHoyt Booger looks hawt, but likely $$$ above the other options. Remember it’s not meant to be my primary. I’d love a Booger with 5” nummies though.
Toying with the idea. Going to need wider trucks though. The deck can’t really take more than 85mm wheels without biting.
Who the fuck in their right mind wants to put little teeny thanes on a jaws board? AND pay over 400 bucks for it???
When Hoyt start shipping internationally I will definitely be considering the Booger. Might even see if I can get a deal ‘minus battery’ to ease the financial pain.
Sounds like a plan. I like their business ethics and preference for local parts and manufacturing. Plus, who can argue the solid electronics tech. Think I saw a post from them the other day on insta with a Stormcore in it, might be remembering wrong though.
I really don’t think that 12x22 bearings are the answer to this scenario. As his royal @kook - ness says , bearing life would definitely be a concern
Gimme thanes with a pulley system and I’ll put em on my board…for shits and giggles. And maybe a video. But at the end of the day, my innovas are going back on there. Don’t even think I could run 15/44 pulleys on thane.
I have always liked the way they present. They seem to have a great deal of pride in their work and the quality looks to be fantastic.
Yup, Boo’ger will have the 60D stormcore as will EL2 when it’s ready. The UAV will go 100D.
CNC Spacers, right?
looks like a pipe cutter and DOM Steel stock>.
And those bearings are not cut out for dust/ our use…
I have 10mm, waiting on something less then 6kg at a time.
How much would you guys actually want?
I have been selfishly forgetting about nickel… Its a large investment-- my 10mm .2 roll thats sitting in china (i told them to ship together ) cost 400 dollars and is like 2 miles long. Its alot of inventory to sit on , and logistically … idk
Give me an idea of what widths and lengths you would want. I’ll restart this back up… sorry
25mm wide in 1.5 and 0.2 thick
everyone always need a qwik ship of gUUd nickel!!!
@iamasalmon has a shipment coming of 0.2mm x 25mm to which I’m hoping to get 3 to 7 meters of.
another n0ob question… how many batteries you makin"?
7 meters…
all of them?
3 packs on the radar. 2 x 12s5p 1x 12s 2p
my estimate comes from (144 cells + 6 extra) * 2 sides * 21mm diameter rounded up to meter.
w0w…
BTW… I just made magic smoke.. I attempted to use my inductance meter to measure battery IR… apparently the magic pixies were angered by two power sources… who knew…
